Reports everywhere this evening claim “Breaking Dawn” is going to be adapted into two movies.

The official word given to Gossip Cop from a rep for Summit is, “No decision has been made and as we have said all along we are continuing to work with Stephenie Meyer to bring Breaking Dawn to the big screen.”

HOWEVER, a well-placed source tells Gossip Cop dividing Breaking Dawn into two pictures “is the direction that it’s going in.” We’re told that from a practical standpoint, separating the story into two parts and shooting back-to-back is what makes most sense.

Earlier reports seem to be fairly accurate when it comes to timing, specifically, that filming may begin in October.

Gossip Cop will keep you posted when plans are officially finalized.

Thank you GossipCop for the info!

In 2007, Jamie Campbell Bower co-starred in Tim Burton’s “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.” A few years later, after being cast as a vampire in “New Moon,” the young British actor has not forgotten the director who gave him his big break, telling MTV News that Burton would be the ideal man to helm the final “Twilight” installment, “Breaking Dawn.”

What does Burton think about that idea? When we caught up with the director at the opening of a retrospective of his work at New York’s Museum of Modern Art, he was flattered.

“He’s being biased, because I worked with him on ‘Sweeney Todd,’ ” Burton laughed. “But that’s nice to hear. In case potential jobs run out, it’d be nice to know someone.”

So what do you guys think? Does Tim Burton and “Breaking Dawn” go well in one sentence in your opinion? Let us know in the comments if you think Tim Burton would be a good director for the movie or not. Tim Burton is known for movies such as “Edward Scissorhands”, “Charlie & The Chocolate Factory”, “The Nighmate Before Christmas” and the soon-to-be-released “Alice In Wonderland”.

“New Moon” is only 13 short weeks away, “Eclipse” is shooting and just recently, there was an apparently false rumor that we would be getting two “Breaking Dawn” movies. Even though the last “Twilight” film tentatively won’t be coming out until 2011 (or 2012?), it’s hard not to keep our eyes on the last three novels in the “Twilight Saga” as they move toward hitting the big screen. In honor of our excitement over these film adaptations, we have put together a list of our top five favorite scenes we can’t wait to see (in order of importance, of course).

SPOILER ALERT! If you haven’t read anything past the very first book in Stephenie Meyer’s series, you probably should skip reading this list, run out to your nearest bookstore, and, uh … get on that!

We’d love to read which scenes you guys are looking forward to the most in “New Moon”, “Eclipse” & “Breaking Dawn”!

However, a rep for Summit Entertainment – the studio behind the hit vampire film franchise – has now told Access that BooBoo (who will join the big screen saga as wolfpack member Seth Clearwater in the next installment) was premature in his statements.

“We appreciate our young actor’s enthusiasm for the franchise and his role, but his comments about the number of films were unfortunately uninformed and not accurate,” the Summit rep said in a statement to Access.

Twilight author Stephenie Meyer was sued Wednesday over claims that she plagiarized the fourth novel in the Twilight series, Breaking Dawn, according to TMZ. Fellow author Jordan Scott claims that the book is very similar to her 2006 novel The Nocturne.

21-year-old Scott’s publisher claims that Breaking Dawn has “striking and substantial” similarities to The Nocturne.

Scott claims there are several coincidences in the two plots, including a wedding, a post-wedding sex scene, a woman becoming sick because she’s carrying a child with “evil powers” and the death of a main character.

Someone (Jordan Scott) is trying to get their five minutes in fame if you ask me.

“The fans should rest assured the we’re working with Stephenie Meyer to bring Breaking Dawn to the big screen,” the rep said. “As in all creative processes, things take time. We want to make sure we get it right.”
And as Twilight fans know, that probably means softening the more hard-core aspects of Breaking Dawn.
“Our fans are in the PG age range, and I don’t feel a big necessity to see violence and to see gore,” Twilight/New Moon/Eclipse screenwriter Melissa Rosenberg told us in late April.
Gore or not, Kristen Stewart probably said it best when we chatted with her in March.
“We all really hope there is going to be a number four,” she said at the time. “I’m pretty confident that the fans aren’t going to…lose interest. The only case that a fourth one wouldn’t be made is if all of a sudden people stopped caring, and I really don’t think that’s going to happen.”

Thanks Twilight Saga for the tip!

The special edition is packed with goodies. According to Borders.com, the book includes a replica of the handwritten lyrics for Blue October’s “My Never” — a song that screams “Twilight” — and a “Breaking Dawn” Concert Series DVD.

The DVD includes a performance by Justin Furstenfeld of Blue October, whose performance at the concert was amazing, and a conversation between the singer and Stephenie.

The special edition book also comes with a full-color Edward and Bella poster. I mean what Twilighter — or closeted Twilighter (I know there’s a lot of you out there!) — wouldn’t want that?
